It should be noted that the uplink waveform to be used by the terminal in the preset conditions is predetermined in the first way according to the communication protocols. Thus, the network side does not need to inform the uplink waveform, and the network side and the terminal side may acquire the uplink waveform according to agreements in the communication protocols. Specifically, the preset conditions may include frequency bands, service types of a terminal, or link types.

In a case that the preset conditions are frequency bands, the frequency bands may include licensed frequency bands and unlicensed frequency bands. For example, the communication protocols may specify an uplink waveform used in the unlicensed frequency bands is the CP-OFDM; and the uplink waveform used in the licensed frequency bands is the DFT-s-OFDM. The frequency bands may also include frequency bands higher than a first preset frequency and frequency bands lower than or equal to the first preset frequency according to frequency values; or the frequency bands may include frequency bands higher than or equal to a second preset frequency or frequency bands lower than the second present frequency. For example, the communication protocols may pre-specify uplink waveforms according to frequency values by taking a value of a specific frequency bin as a threshold. Specifically, for example, the communication protocols may specify an uplink waveform used in a case that a frequency is lower than or equal to 20 GHz is the DFT-s-OFDM, otherwise the uplink waveform used is the CP-OFDM. The terminal may determine an uplink waveform according to a frequency band to which a current operational carrier belongs and may perform a subsequent transmission procedure.

In a case that the preset conditions are service types of a terminal, the terminal may determine an uplink waveform to be used, according to a current service type of the terminal. For example, the communication protocols may specify an uplink waveform used for a massive Machine Type Communication (mMTC) is the DFT-s-OFDM and an uplink waveform used for an ultra Reliability Low Latency Communication (URLLC) is the CP-OFDM.

In a case that the preset conditions are link types, the terminal may determine, according to the link types, an uplink waveform to be used. For example, the communication protocols may specify an uplink waveform used for a sidelink is the CP-OFDM, and an uplink waveform used for an uplink is the DFT-s-OFDM. The terminal may determine, according to a link type of a current link, an uplink waveform to be used.

Second way: receiving information about an uplink waveform to be used for information transmission of the terminal, the information about the uplink waveform being determined for the terminal and transmitted through a preset message by the network side.

It should be noted that, the preset message may be a broadcast message or a dedicated message. The dedicated message may be physical-layer control information or a high-layer dedicated signaling. For example, the high-layer dedicated signaling may be a Radio Resource Control (RRC) message.

Specifically, the terminal receives the information about the uplink waveform to be used for the information transmission of the terminal, wherein the information about the uplink waveform is determined by the network side according to the frequency bands, the service types of the terminal, the link types, a radius of a cell or a coverage for the terminal and is transmitted to the terminal through the preset message.

For example, in a case that the preset message is the broadcast message, the network side may determine, according to a size of the radius of the cell, the uplink waveform to be used by the terminal, and inform the terminal in the cell through the broadcast message. For example, in a case that the radius of the cell is small (the size of the radius of the cell may be smaller than a preset value), the network side may inform the terminal in the cell to use the CP-OFDM as the uplink waveform through the broadcast message; otherwise, the network side may inform the terminal in the cell to use the DFT-s-OFDM as the uplink waveform through the broadcast message.

For example, in a case that the preset message is the dedicated message, the network side may determine, according to coverage for the terminal, the uplink waveform to be used by the terminal, and inform the terminal in the cell through the dedicated message. For example, in a Non-Stand Alone (NSA) deployment in the New Radio (NR), an anchor cell still uses a Long Term Evolution (LTE) technique, and non-anchor cells use the NR. The network side may determine, according to coverage for the terminal obtained from the anchor cell, an uplink waveform to be used for operation of the terminal in the NR non-anchor cells, and then inform the terminal through the dedicated message.

Third way: receiving information about the uplink waveform to be used for information transmission of the terminal by the terminal, the information about the uplink waveform being fed back to the terminal by the network side according to reporting information transmitted from the terminal.

It should be noted that, the reporting information mainly includes downlink measurement result information and/or uplink power information. Main steps in the third way include steps 1-3.

Step 1: obtaining a reference value of reference data used for generating the reporting information by the terminal, wherein the reference data includes a pathloss, a downlink reference signal receiving power, a downlink reference signal receiving quality, a current transmission power level or an uplink power headroom;

Step 2: generating the reporting information according to the reference value;

Step 3: transmitting the reporting information to the network side, wherein, the reporting information includes the reference value or a difference between the reference value and a preconfigured threshold.

It should be noted that downlink measurement result information includes a reference value of the pathloss or a difference between the reference value and a preconfigured threshold; a reference value of the downlink reference signal receiving power or a difference between the reference value and a preconfigured threshold; and a reference value of the downlink reference signal receiving quality or a difference between the reference value and a present threshold. Uplink power information includes a reference value of a current transmission power level or a difference between the reference value and a preconfigured threshold, and a reference value of an uplink power headroom or a difference between the reference value and a preconfigured threshold.

Optionally, in a case that the reference data includes the pathloss, the downlink reference signal receiving power or the downlink reference signal receiving quality, a specific implementation of the step 2 includes: obtaining an uplink power offset of the terminal; and generating the reporting information according to the uplink power offset and the reference value, wherein the reporting information includes a difference between the reference value and the uplink power offset; or a difference between the difference between the reference value and the uplink power offset and a preconfigured threshold.

In the embodiments, a manner in which the uplink power offset of the terminal is obtained is: obtaining the uplink power offset of the terminal according to a transmission power level of the terminal and a transmission power threshold preconfigured by the network side.

It should be noted that, the transmission power threshold preconfigured by the network side is preconfigured and is announced to the terminal by the network side.

Taking a case in which the reference data for generating the reporting information is the pathloss (i.e., a downlink measurement parameter is the pathloss) as an example, the terminal measures the pathloss and obtains a measurement result L_(meas) of the pathloss, and the terminal reports the measurement result of the pathloss or a difference between the measurement result of the pathloss and a threshold preconfigured by the network side (such as by a base station).

It should be noted that, in a case that the terminal reports to the network side the difference between the measurement result of the pathloss and the threshold preconfigured by the base station, the base station may notify in advance the terminal of the threshold L_(threshold) preconfigured by the network side, and the terminal obtains the difference S1 between the measurement result of the pathloss and the threshold preconfigured by the network according to a formula S1=L_(meas)−L_(threshold) and report the difference S1 to the base station. Specifically, the terminal reports to the base station the difference between a quantified measurement result of the pathloss and the threshold preconfigured by the base station, or the terminal reports to the base station whether the S1 is smaller than 0 (or smaller than or equal to 0). Further, the base station may also set or preconfigure the terminal with a preset rule of reporting the difference to the base station. The preset rule requires the terminal to transmit the reporting information to the network side in a case that the difference between the reference value and a preconfigured threshold is smaller than a first preset threshold or smaller than or equal to the first preset threshold or the difference between the reference value and a preconfigured threshold is larger than a second preset threshold or smaller than or equal to the second preset threshold. The terminal receives the preset rule and transmits the reporting information in a case that the preset rule is met. For example, the terminal may be preconfigured to report the difference between the quantified measurement report of the pathloss and the threshold preconfigured by the network side when the S1 is smaller than (or smaller than or equal to) a threshold; or the terminal is preconfigured to report one bit when the S1 is smaller than 0 (or smaller than or equal to 0).

Taking as an example a case in which the reference data used for generating the reporting information is the downlink reference signal receiving power (i.e., the downlink measurement parameter is the downlink reference signal receiving power), the terminal measures the downlink reference signal receiving power P_(rx,meas) ^(DL), and reports the downlink reference signal receiving power to the base station or reports the difference between the downlink reference signal receiving power and a threshold preconfigured by the base station.

Specifically, in a case that the terminal reports to the base station the difference between the downlink reference signal receiving power and the threshold preconfigured by the base station, the base station notifies the terminal of a minimum downlink receiving power P_(rx,min) ^(DL), a maximum transmission power P_(POWERCLASS,0) allowable in a cell, and a power offset P_(offset) ^(UL).

A difference S2 is calculated by the terminal based on a measured downlink reference signal receiving power according to a following formula S2=P_(rx,meas) ^(DL)−P_(rx,min) ^(DL)−(P_(UE_MAX)−P_(POWERCLASS,0))−P_(offset) ^(UL), wherein P_(UE_MAX) is a transmission power level of the terminal. Optionally, the minimum downlink receiving power P_(rx,min) ^(DL) is determined by the base station side according to a maximum pathloss of a cell or a maximum coupling loss, and the power offset P_(offset) ^(UL) is determined by judging whether the CP-OFDM may increase an uplink speed or not. Specifically, the terminal reports to the base station a quantified value of the S2, or the terminal reports to the base station whether the S2 is smaller than 0 (or smaller than or equal to 0). Further, the base station may also set or preconfigure the terminal with a preset rule of reporting the difference. The preset rule requires the terminal to transmit the reporting information to the network side in a case that the difference between the reference value and the preconfigured threshold is smaller than the first preset threshold or smaller than or equal to (a mathematical symbol “≤”) the first preset threshold or the difference between the reference value and the preconfigured threshold is larger than a second preset threshold or larger than or equal to (a mathematical symbol “≥”) the second preset threshold. The terminal receives the preset rule and transmits the reporting information in a case that the preset rule is met. For example, the terminal may be preconfigured to report the quantified value of the S2 when the S2 is smaller than (or smaller than or equal to) a threshold; or the terminal is preconfigured to report one bit when the S2 is smaller than 0 (or smaller than or equal to 0).

It should be noted that, a case in which the reference data is the downlink reference signal receiving quality is similar to the case in which the reference data is the downlink reference signal receiving power, and details of the former case is not provided herein.

Taking as an example a case in which the reference data for generating the reporting information is the current transmission power level of the terminal, the terminal determines a current transmission power level, the current transmission power level may be an instant transmission power, a transmission power for a specific message in a specific process, or an average transmission power within a specific time period. The terminal reports a quantified transmission power level, or the terminal reports a difference between the transmission power and a transmission power preconfigured by the base station side, or the terminal reports whether a maximum transmission power is reached. Further, the terminal may be set or preconfigured with a reporting condition under which the terminal triggers the reporting to the base station side. For example, the terminal may be preconfigured to trigger the reporting to the base station, under a condition that the transmission power level of the terminal is lower than a specific threshold; or the terminal may be set to trigger the reporting to the base station, under a condition that a maximum transmission power of the terminal is not reached.

Taking as an example a case in which the reference data for generating the reporting information is the uplink power headroom, the terminal determines the uplink power headroom, and reports the uplink power headroom to the network side. Specifically, for example, a reference bandwidth is arranged at the base station side. The terminal calculates a difference between a maximum transmission power and a transmission power needed for transmission within the reference bandwidth and take the difference as the uplink power headroom for reporting.

The base station side determines the uplink waveform of the terminal according to the reporting information of the terminal. Optionally, in a case that the pathloss is smaller than a threshold or smaller than or equal to the threshold, the uplink waveform of the terminal is configured to be the CP-OFDM, otherwise, the uplink waveform of the terminal is configured to be the DFT-s-OFDM. In a case that the downlink reference signal receiving power or the downlink reference signal receiving quality is smaller than a threshold or smaller than or equal to the threshold, the uplink waveform of the terminal is configured to be the DFT-s-OFDM, otherwise, the uplink waveform of the terminal is configured to be the CP-OFDM. In a case that the current transmission power level of the terminal is smaller than a threshold or smaller than or equal to the threshold, the uplink waveform of the terminal is configured to be the CP-OFDM, otherwise, the uplink waveform of the terminal is configured to be the DFT-s-OFDM. In a case that the uplink power headroom is smaller than a threshold or smaller than or equal to the threshold, the uplink waveform of the terminal is configured to be the DFT-s-OFDM, otherwise, the uplink waveform of the terminal is configured to be the CP-OFDM.

It should be further noted that, the terminal may transmit the reporting information to the network side in a random access procedure or after the random access procedure. Accordingly, after the network side receives the reporting information, the network side transmits information about a determined uplink waveform to the terminal within the random access procedure or after the random access procedure.

For example, the terminal reports a downlink measurement result or the uplink power information to the base station side through a preamble in a first message, Message 1 (Msg1), in a random access procedure. The base station side configures the information about the uplink waveform in a response message to the Msg1. The terminal determines the uplink waveform according to configuration in a response message to the Msg1 until the terminal receives an uplink waveform reconfiguration. Specifically, the terminal informs the network side explicitly through the Msg1 or informs the network side implicitly through random access resources. For example, the random access resources are divided in advance to correspond to different downlink measurement reports or uplink power information. Specifically, taking the pathloss as the example, the random access resources are divided into two portions in advance. One of the two portions corresponds to a condition in which a pathloss measurement result is larger than a preconfigured threshold, and the other of the two portions corresponds to a condition in which the pathloss measurement result is not larger than the preconfigured threshold.

For example, the terminal reports the downlink measurement result or the uplink power information to the base station side through a third message, Message 3 (Msg3), in the random access procedure. The base station side configures an uplink waveform for the terminal through a dedicated signaling. The terminal determines the uplink waveform according to configuration in the dedicated signaling before the terminal receives an uplink waveform reconfiguration signaling. The Message 3 (Msg3) is transmitted by using a predefined uplink waveform. For example, the communication protocols specify an uplink waveform used for the Msg3 is the DFT-s-OFDM.

For example, the terminal reports the downlink measurement result or the uplink power information to the base station side within an uplink transmission process subsequent to the random access procedure. The network side configures the uplink waveform through a dedicated signaling. The terminal determines the uplink waveform according to configuration in the dedicated signaling before the terminal receives an uplink waveform reconfiguration signaling. The terminal uses a predefined uplink waveform for transmission before the terminal obtains configuration of uplink waveforms configured by the network side. For example, the communication protocols specify an uplink waveform used for the Msg3 is the DFT-s-OFDM.

It should be noted that, in actual applications, the above conditions/cases may be combined so as to achieve a purpose that the terminal uses the uplink waveforms for information transmission.

One implementation in actual applications: the base station side announces uplink waveforms to be used in a cell through a broadcast message. Further, the terminal reports the uplink power information, and the base station side determines an uplink waveforms based on the reporting information from the terminal, and informs the terminal of the determined uplink waveform.

For example, the base station side informs terminals in the cell, through the broadcast message, that an uplink waveform of DFT-s-OFDM is used for the terminals in the cell. Further, the terminal determines the uplink power information and reports the uplink power information to the base station side. The base station side determines the uplink waveform for the terminals and informs the terminals of the determined uplink waveform. It should be noted that, before the terminal obtains the uplink waveform configured by the network side, the uplink waveform used by the terminal is the DFT-s-OFDM; after the terminal obtains a configuration of an uplink waveform configured by the network side, the terminal transmits information according to the uplink waveform configured by the base station side according to the uplink power information.

It should be further noted that, since a peak-to-average ratio of the CP-OFDM is higher than that of the DFT-s-OFDM, a power backoff value needed for the terminal is higher. The base station side may inform a power backoff value so that the terminal may adjust a transmission power. Therefore, the uplink waveform acquisition method in the embodiments of the present disclosure further includes receiving a power backoff value transmitted by the network side, wherein the power backoff value is used by the terminal to adjust a transmission power when the uplink waveform of the terminal is switched between the CP-OFDM and the DFT-s-OFDM.

It should be noted that the power backoff value may be announced by the base station side through a broadcast message, or may be transmitted to the terminal by the base station side at any time when the terminal communicates with the base station side. Optionally, the power backoff value may be communicated to the terminal when the base station informs the terminal of changing the uplink waveform.

In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the uplink waveform of the terminal is determined through the NR in the 5G. The terminal may transmit data according to the uplink waveform. A network communication procedure in the NR of the 5G is supplemented and a reliability of network communication is ensured.
